    Just bought a speed queen after my new maytag broken after 1 week. Motor blew spewing fluid. Took 4 weeks for maytag to finally agree to take it back. I prefer top load washers. My previous maytag washer lasted 30 years with no repairs and my maytag gas dryer is still going with me just changing the belt 2 years ago. Will probably by a speed queen dryer when mine is not repairable. They don't make them like they used too.

      Yes. This will tell you how much electricity is being consumed in your home. Each item is labeled in the app. If you have an old refrigerator that is using a ton of electricity it will tell you how much that is costing you.

    First thing you do is swap out that skinny plastic rear tire. Harbor Freight has a better pnumatic wheel assembly, just four bolts to take it off and swap it out. You lose the brake, but that wasn't very usefull anyway. Otherwise this is a GREAT garden tool, I keep all my saws, trimmers and pruners in it, so everything is handy. I would buy this again in a heart beat.

    The ad for the Greenworks 25" mower on the Home Depot website states that a battery will charge in 40 minutes. If a fully depleted battery is removed from this mower and placed in the battery charger as soon as you stop mowing, do you know if the battery will immediately begin to charge, or is there a 'cool down' period before it will begin to charge? If there is a 'cool down' period, any idea about how long it is?

So far, I am not pleased with mine (but I love the GW mower and leaf blower).
